Dozens of pigs and sheep, Chen Zijian deliberately asked people to bury the corpses, the pigs and sheep killed by lead bullets have been contaminated with heavy metals, and there is no doubt that there will be problems after eating, Chen Zijian will not let his subordinates do experiments for this bit of meat.

Experimental weapons, in addition to the Minnie gun, were also successfully countered by powerful artillery.

Don't look at the artillery is very backward, it can only shoot one shot a minute, but no one dares to question its power, even if it is in such a backward state, the artillery is still artillery, and the uncle is still the uncle.

This is the power of artillery, a terrifying weapon.

Chen Zijian felt sorry for the Ming Dynasty, as a later generation, the Ming Dynasty already had the use of thermal weapons, and drove the Mongols back to the grassland, as long as thermal weapons continue to increase research, use better materials, better workers, and enhance the power of the fire system, the Ming Dynasty will not reach this point, but there is no pity.

Qi Jiguang, a famous general of the Ming Dynasty, defeated the Japanese Kou, but he actually used cold weapons, but there was no room for hot weapons. Among them, the black pot Chen Zijian is buckled on the head of the civil official, anyway, there are enough black cauldrons of the civil official, and he doesn't care about one more hat.

The more he understands the group of civil officials, Chen Zijian hates it so much, this is a group of people who seek benefits for themselves or their families, they don't care about the interests of the country, if they can earn a hundred taels of silver for themselves, they don't mind selling the interests of the country for one million.

It was a group of moths with no moral limit, the best example is the eight merchants of the Jin Dynasty, in the late Ming Dynasty, the Jin merchants smuggled a large amount of grain, clothing, cooking utensils, metal and gunpowder banned by the Ming Dynasty to the hands of the Tartars; It even included the military and strategic intelligence needed for the Later Jin invasion of the Central Plains. In return, the Later Jin regime exchanged ginseng, deer antler velvet, animal skins, and valuables looted from the Central Plains.

Although it is ostensibly operated by businessmen, is it possible that there is no official involvement behind it!

Chen Zijian let everyone watch the power of artillery, in order to teach them how to use artillery, and the artillery was concentrated to attack the enemy, and the scene was very touching.

"Artillery aiming preparation." The commander of the artillery battalion shouted.

A hundred guns were lined up in three rows. The muzzle of the gun is raised, aiming at the target in the distance, and the target is set at a distance of 200 meters, although the range of the artillery is between 1,500 and 1,800 meters, but such a range is a bit excessive, and there is no need for such a range, and it is really a target of 1,500 meters, and the cannon does not know where to fly after being discharged, and it is impossible to hit.

When attacking the city, there is more than 200 meters to rub, this distance can guarantee that only I can beat you, you are not to my extent, even if there is artillery in other big cities, there is no ability to fight back in the face of this kind of artillery bombardment by the volunteers, artillery usually needs daily maintenance, Chen Zijian does not think that those people will cherish the artillery, let the soldiers wipe it every day, and be a soldier in the imperial court, belonging to the lowly class, and the monthly money may be deducted, even if there is artillery in this case, there will not be that soldier to maintain. The artillery is installed on the city wall, exposed to the sun and rain, rusty and does not look good, and it is really time to fight, and it is difficult to say what the consequences will be with these guns.

"Put." The commander of the artillery battalion shouted.

"Bang, bang. Bang, bang. "The artillery fired in turn. The thick smoke blocked the artillery, but it couldn't block the whistling shells.

A hundred guns fired in a very short time, and the sense of shock was not comparable to a few, a dozen or a dozen guns. Now you can feel some shaking in the vicinity.

Fortunately, everyone knows the loud noise of the artillery, cover your ears in advance, otherwise it is not impossible to be really broken eardrums, as for the artillery, there are special earmuffs to protect it, don't worry.

The cannon flew out at high speed, and a cracking sound sounded.

"Whew." "Whew." "Boom." "Boom." Shells fell. The impact of the shell left a deep crater.

Most of the livestock that were hit were killed directly, and those who were injured next to them were basically broken by shells. Wherever artillery is fired, there are passages made of the entrails and severed limbs of animals. Those animals who cried out for injury could only struggle in pain, screaming fiercely.

The cannonballs were still whistling, and the target quickly became a place of death. The artillery artillery is getting more and more accurate. After several rounds of shelling, the angle was consciously adjusted, using the projectile angle of the artillery. Hit the cannonball hard.

"Boom, just like that, I don't believe that these hard-boned Zhao people can withstand the bombardment of artillery. No matter how hard-headed a person is, Lao Tzu's artillery will be blasted into powder for him. Ju Xin said viciously. Drama Xin has begun to become superstitious about the power of artillery. As soon as the war began, the artillery rang out. No one can resist it.

The Yan army watched the artillery performance very easily. This kind of weapon, called artillery, is very powerful. As soon as a loud noise sounds. Zhao Jun had to die a large number of people, and the death was very ugly. The Yan army began to pay less attention to the Zhao army that was bombarded at the head of the city. Instead, they began to desert, standing in place in twos and twos and talking about artillery.

Li Hu: "Damn, you don't know about this artillery. When we attacked the bandits before, we attacked with artillery, tsk. Li Hu remembered the bandits who were hit by artillery.

"That's a miserable one. It's too ugly to die. The whole person started from the big belly, and it was all pierced. It became a university hole in the middle. The intestines in the stomach flowed all over the ground. I was able to see it at the time. I almost threw up. ”

Niu Sheng: "Li Hu, what are you, I've seen someone hit directly in the head by a cannonball, do you know what the tragedy is, the whole head is gone, and the body below can still run dozens of meters before falling." ”

After everyone waited for the artillery to stop shelling, they chatted about the situation of going out to fight, and there was not a single person here, they were all battlefield killers, and they were used to seeing dead people, so they didn't feel anything about it.

At a distance of two hundred meters, which is obviously invisible to the naked eye, the smoke of gunpowder dispersed and took out the telescope.

Everyone gasped, and there were more than 100 animals in the distance, but not many could stand up, and the animals hit by the shells were lying on the target.

The Artillery Volunteers had two types of shells at their disposal, one was a solid shell that had just been used for walls or gates, and for long-range enemies. Another type of artillery shell is a close-range attack, and that is shotshot, which is used for the enemy between 50 and 200 meters.

On the scene, if the enemy charges into the range of scattered projectiles, the artillery will use this weapon, shooting hundreds of thumb-sized projectiles, and then the enemy will be unlucky, the probability of hundreds of projectiles hitting is greatly increased, this kind of shell Chen Zijian is specially used to deal with Tartars in the future.

The Tartars can defeat the guards in the northeast of the Ming Dynasty, especially in the field battlefield charge, basically invincible, in addition to the Ming soldiers have no will, the Tartar charge is still quite powerful, of course, the premise is cold weapon combat.

The scattered bullets specially prepared by Chen Zijian for them will be the bad news of the cold weapon charge, hundreds of shotguns are shelled, plus the Minny gun as a supplementary shot, the cold weapon charge is a joke, and it is not a joke to die how many come.

So after mastering the Minnie gun and artillery, Chen Zijian was even more disdainful of the Tartars, a group of turtles, nothing but a little courage. Standing on the shoulders of giants, Chen Zijian can despise Tartars.

Chen Zijian doesn't know how the various forces in the northern battlefield are fighting? Chen Zijian has read historical materials, Li Zicheng and Tartar had a decisive battle in Shanhaiguan, Li Zicheng retreated, lost all the chips, and the soldiers and horses that could fight were basically exhausted after the battle with the Tartars, and then the Tartars entered the customs and used the role of traitors to rule China for hundreds of years.

Since Chen Zijian's forces were in the southern region and had no influence on the battlefield in the northern region, how the northern battlefield should be fought or how it should be fought did not receive the influence of Chen Zijian's forces in the south.

As for the Southern Ming court, it has lost the defense of the north, and only by relying on the Yangtze River to block the enemy's attack, it is even more impossible to regain the lost land, and the court wants to recover the lost land, and needs a strong person to control the situation, so there is a trace of possibility, but it is a pity that now the Southern Ming court is dragging its feet and fighting for power, and there is such a small thing as recovering the lost land.

That's right, the thinking of civil officials is very strange, to this point, no one cares how much land is lost, for them, it is more important to grasp the little power that is left than anything else, there are really Tartars attacking them, it is a big deal to surrender, and then continue to fight for power.

The northern forces are like dogs, Chen Zijian has no ability to manage it for the time being, and when he runs the base camp well, the key is that he doesn't have many management talents, and he can't manage it if he expands too much territory, as for the old scholars, Chen Zijian doesn't dare to use them more, so he can only limit himself to teaching and literacy.

Seeing the power of artillery, especially the scene of gathering a hundred artillery pieces, Li Shi and Li Hu began to fight, wanting Chen Zijian to give their army more artillery.

Compared with other corps commanders, Zhang Wu smiled and didn't speak next to him, because his navy was the richest, and one battleship had twenty guns, and the twenty battleships not long ago, plus the previous nine battleships, had more than five hundred guns, so he was very interested in not fighting, otherwise he would provoke the anger of the public.

A legion has less than twenty artillery pieces, and he has more than five hundred artillery pieces for Zhang Wu alone, is it reasonable! Fortunately, these news have not yet reached the ears of several corps commanders, otherwise they would have to fight the local tyrants and divide the artillery.

Chen Zijian equipped the navy with such good weapons, because at sea he may encounter the most powerful forces in the world, the Netherlands, as well as the second-rate forces Portugal, Spain, and Fujian's Zheng Zhilong can enter the third-rate forces, in the face of these forces, Chen Zijian does not dare to take it lightly and give the navy the most powerful weapons.

On land, the forces faced by the Volunteers can be swept away with the help of Minnie guns, and with the icing on the cake of artillery, the role is much less, and it does not need too much artillery to attack cities on land.
